I am new to programing and just got my max7456 on a break out board from spark fun. I want to eventually make a simple OSD for an FPV airplane but mostly learn how to program better. I am using a Duemilnove to control it.
I have read this entire thread:
http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaB ... 20054359/0
http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaB ... 1254778402
It gives me code and I make an attempt to hook it up. My screen just stays black like there is no signal. I assumed this part of the code tells me what to plugs to use.
DATAOUT 11//MOSI
DATAIN 12//MISO
SPICLOCK 13//sck
MAX7456SELECT 10//ss
VSYNC 2// INT0
I had Dout on 11, Din on 12, sck on 13, wasnt sure what ss was so I assumed CS on 10 and vsync on 2 (all digital side) Thats exactly how I had it. From reading further into the thread, I have to put a resistor on the RST pin and put 5v into it. Not sure if there are other things to do or not but I am pretty confused on how to hook it up. Any help would be appreciated
